Faceless

This collection of haunting photographs was made at a series of Italian hospitals for the criminally insane by Bologna-born photographer Claudio Cricca. The subjects of this Humanity Photo Award-winning project are "playful, menacing, absurd, tortured, disoriented, stoic, angry; in short, with a full range of human emotions..." Cricca has contributed to The New York Times, National Geographic, The Herald Tribune, USA Today and Italian GQ.
